Chapter 79: The mysterious place
Chapter-79
"Are you sure about it? I can drop you off wherever you want to go. If it’s about the confined space, I can call my car here," Daniel looked at her in hope, and Elliana shook her head.
She can’t afford them knowing where she was going, or everything would go down the drain, and it won’t affect only her but those people too.
"Thank you for your offer, Daniel, but I am going to meet a friend, and she doesn’t like meeting new people. She kind of lives in hiding because of a trauma," Elliana lied straight through her teeth.
"Are you sure you are not doing it because you don’t want us to know where your home is?" Daniel narrowed his eyes jokingly, and Elliana rolled her eyes.
"Of course. I don’t want you to know what kind of shady business I am into," Elliana missed, and they laughed.
"But honestly, is everyone around you suffering from some kind of trauma?" Alcinder commented insensitively, and any other person would’ve been offended, but Elliana just smiled and hummed.
"What can I say? Birds of the same feather flock together. Isn’t that why you are with me here, discussing why I am not sitting with you and honoring your car? Are you so excited to sit with me?" Elliana smiled challengingly.
"You guys, stop it. Alcinder, get in the car. We don’t need another session of Rat, rabbit, or Bottle guard," Daniel said, looking at Elliana one last time before they sat inside the car one by one.
Elliana waved her hand, standing on the pavement of the restaurant as they left.
As soon as her friends left, she messaged the woman she needed to meet.
